Yes!
First, I will finish that last side box I didn't have time to make this past year. Then I plan to make at least one more main body and set of side boxes for THEMAN. Then I will pack it all up and take it to his shop out east.
After that I will mill the interior of the air intakes and make those parts. Then probably start working on the wheel covers.
Would be awesome to have a driving car by fall. But that's mostly depends on Theman's progress.

Aloha everyone. It's been raining like crazy here in Hawaii, so I have been reviewing some of the posts and pictures in this thread to lift my spirits and get inspired to get back to work. The road is daunting, but I'm looking forward to it.
Thanks for keeping this board alive.

Doing what I can, trying to encourage others to start bat vehicle builds, and looking forward to seeing your future progress. vertigo

Not building a Bat vehicle here but doing an edition on to the house from scratch. I'll post a few pics of that soon, just for fun.

Building construction. Another of my favorite hobbies."
How much more expensive is lumber and other building supplies in Hawaii than other states? vertigo

Lumber prices were crazy the last couple of years but went down a bit this year. A 2x4 stud is about $2 more here than on the mainland. Not too bad.

Can't get pictures right now, sorry.
